everyone should have to spend atleast 1 winter in sub 40 temperatures. It builds character.

aye aye aye, I have to do that while in college. Not a fan to say the least. Last year it would snow all the time then melt and the next day it would snow again. This year it hasn't snowed as much but it has been much colder. I don't want to experience -12F with wind chills around -30F like I did early this winter.
